CHECK INPUT SIGNAL FOR TCM .
1. Start the engine.
2. Warm up until the ATF temperature reaches to 40 - 70°C (104 - 158°F).
3. Set the select lever to "D" range.
4. Drive at 2 km/h or more.
5. Shift the select lever to "P" range.
6. Stabilize the engine speed at idle.
7. Using the Subaru Select Monitor, read data of [Actual Secondary Pressure] in the [Data Monitor] of [Transmission]. Ref. to TRANSMISSION (DIAGNOSTICS) (CROSSTREK MODEL)>DATA MONITOR .
Is [Actual Secondary Pressure] 0.5 - 1.5 [MPa]?

Yes : Check for poor contact of connector.

No : Go to 2.
CHECK HARNESS .
1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2. Disconnect the TCM connector.
3. Disconnect the secondary pressure sensor connector.
4. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
5. Measure the voltage between TCM connector and chassis ground.
  Connector & terminal
  
  (T10) No. 5 (+) - Chassis ground (-):
  
  (T10) No. 33 (+) - Chassis ground (-):
Is the voltage approx. 0 V?

Yes : Go to 3.

No : Repair the short circuit of harness.
CHECK HARNESS .
1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2. Measure the resistance between TCM connector terminals.
  Connector & terminal
  
  (T10) No. 5 - (T10) No. 33:
Is the resistance less than 1 Ω?

Yes : Repair the short circuit of harness.

No : Go to 4.
CHECK POWER SUPPLY FOR SECONDARY PRESSURE SENSOR .
1. Connect the TCM connector.
2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
3. Measure the voltage between secondary pressure sensor connector terminals.
  Connector & terminal
  
  (AT6) No. 1 (+) - (AT6) No. 3 (-):
Is the voltage 4.5 V or more?

Yes : Replace the secondary pressure sensor. Ref. to CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION (TR580 CROSSTREK)>SECONDARY PRESSURE SENSOR .

No : Check for poor contact of connector, and if no fault is found, replace the TCM. Ref. to CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION (TR580 CROSSTREK)>TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE (TCM) .
